As previously announced1, WDP launched a capital increase in cash within the authorised capital waiving the legal pre-emptive right of existing shareholders and without granting an irreducible allocation right to existing shareholders. The gross amount of this capital increase amounted to 400 million euros via an issue of 20,618,556 new shares at an issue price of 19.40 euros per share. The capital increase was achieved through an exempt accelerated private placement with international qualified and/​or institutional investors with the composition of an order book (an accelerated bookbuilding or ABB).

After completion of this capital increase and the issue of 20,618,556 new shares at a total amount of 399,999,986.40 euros (i.e. 23,622,889.87 euros booked as Capital and 376,377,096.53 euros booked as Issue premiums), WDP’s total capital as at 2 October 2026 amounts to 300,826,420.47 euros, represented by 262,567,638 fully paid-up shares. There are no preference shares. Each of these shares confers one voting right at the General Meeting, so these shares represent the denominator for purposes of notifications under transparency regulations (notifications upon reaching or exceeding a minimum or maximum threshold set down in the Articles of Association or by law, for example). In addition to statutory thresholds, the WDP Articles of Association set additional thresholds of 3% and 7.5%, in accordance with Article 18(1) of the Belgian Transparency Law. No outstanding options or subscription rights have been issued which confer entitlement to shares.
